Buon Don dipterocarp forest, part of Cu Yang Sin National Park (Dak Lak), is not only a rich ecosystem but also preserves many traditional cultural values of local ethnic minorities. With a tropical monsoon climate and large forest area, this place is an ideal environment for many precious timber species such as rosewood, ca chit, and ca te. The forest ecosystem not only helps protect the environment and maintain water resources but also supports the livelihoods of the Ede and M'nong communities - residents who have been attached to the forest for generations.
At the beginning of the rainy season in March, when the first rains fall, the Buon Don dipterocarp forest grows many precious medicinal herbs. This is an indispensable part of the cultural and culinary life of the local people. Mr. Y Ngoan Nie, from the Buon Don District Oriental Medicine Association, said that the rainy season is the ideal time to harvest precious medicinal herbs such as button mushrooms (white mushrooms), rù rì flowers and wild turmeric flowers - precious medicinal herbs in folk medicine.
Wild button mushrooms are opaque white, smooth, and have a light aroma. They are often used in stir-fries, soups, or as a seasoning for meat. Not only are they nutritious, they also aid digestion, reduce joint pain, and cool the body, making them a popular dish in Buon Don people's meals.
Wild turmeric is a familiar herb in many dishes and folk remedies. Turmeric helps relieve pain, improve the digestive system, and is often used in soups, stir-fries or tea. People in Buon Don also use turmeric to treat joint pain and skin diseases.
The rù rì flowers grow on clusters of rocks in the middle of the Serépok River and have special spiritual value. Considered a symbol of luck and health, the rù rì flowers can only be picked when rowing a boat out to the middle of the river. People believe that picking rù rì flowers is a sign of prosperity and abundance. The rù rì flowers are also used by border guards to make dishes, helping to change the taste and connect with wild nature.
However, these herbs are facing the risk of extinction if not properly protected. In recent years, Buon Don people have become more aware of the value of herbs and have cooperated with authorities to maintain a sustainable forest environment. In particular, local women play an important role in controlled harvesting, only harvesting when the herbs are ripe and allowing the plants to regenerate naturally for the following rainy season. This not only helps increase income but also protects the ecological balance of Buon Don dipterocarp forests.
The future of precious herbs such as wild mushrooms, wild turmeric flowers and rù rì flowers depends on conservation and sustainable development. This is not only a source of health and culinary benefits but also a valuable heritage that needs to be preserved for future generations to continue to enjoy.
